摘要
We have grown 1.3 mutm GaInAsN/GaAs single-quantum-well (SQW) laser structures by solid source molecular beam epitaxy using an RF plasma source for the generation of active nitrogen. For p-type doping Carbon is used. Ridge waveguide lasers show threshold currents of 21 mA and a slope efficiency of 0.52 W/A. Device operation up to temperatures of 150 degreesC (limited by our set-up for temperature variation) is demonstrated. Between 20 and 80degreesC we observe for a constant drive current of 90 mA a reduction in output power of less than 2 dB. The threshold current variation with temperature yields a T-0 of 158 K for temperatures between 20 and 110degreesC.
